Get PRCA Standards September 2008 - Professional Ropes Course ... - Prcainfo

An aerial adventure course is an obstacle course set high up in the trees! It requires a bit more physical exertion than a standard zip line tour that you may have experienced elsewhere in the past.

A kids ropes course can help strengthen the bonds between players on youth sports teams and in student clubs, while also promoting physical fitness and mental toughness. Ropes courses have been around for centuries, but they really became popular as a training tool for military soldiers.

ANSI American National Standards Institute.

In March 2014 ANSI designated the ANSI/PRCA 1.0-. 3-2014 as the SOLE American National Safety Standard for Challenge Courses (including aerial adventure parks, zip line tours, canopy tours and the standard ropes challenge courses). As a safety standard, this covers both participants and employees.

ANSI, as well as ISO, defines a standard this way: A standard is a document, established by consensus that provides rules, guidelines or characteristics for activities or their results.

The first ropes course in the U.S. was introduced by Colorado Outward Bound; however, the concept of the modern ropes course goes back to the early 1900s when Georges Hébert, a French naval officer, developed a method of physical education that would develop the body and moral character in an outdoor environment.

High course Ropes courses can be described as static, dynamic, vertical, and M-Belay. With a static course, participants are attached to an upper wire, belay cable, with lanyards (ropes and carabiners) for safety.

There are more than 100,000 recognized standards in the United States⁠—including over 13,000 approved American National Standards—and more than 30,000 globally recognized international standards.

We think that the first modern high ropes courses were designed by a French Naval Officer called Georges Hérbert. He wanted to use them to train sailors using obstacles similar to the ones they'd find on ships, which explains the ropes, climbing, and balancing.

Never flip upside down, swing, or spin in the belay safety line. Anyone seen not following these rules at all times will be asked to leave the course and down climb. REMEMBER: PARTICIPANTS MUST REMAIN CLIPPED ONTO A METAL CABLE WITH AT LEAST ONE SAFETY LINE AT ALL TIMES WHEN ABOVE THE GROUND.
